Alex Squair regained the western
tennis title for Chicago yesterday by
defeating last year's champion, Clar
ence Griffin of California, 6-3, 5-7,
6-3, 6-0.
Griffin was completely outplayed
by the local man, frequently losing
his service games by a love score. He
used up his reserve energy in the sec
ond set, and from then to the finish
Squair had an easy time.
Squair is only 22 years, old, and one
of the best young court men ever
turned out by the west. If he con
tinues to improve he will undoubtedly
rank with the stars of the country.
A. J. Samuelson, with a medal
score of 72, led the field in the quali
fying round over the Jackson Park
course for the Chicago city golf
championship. The play was not up
to the standard expected, several
stars of former years remaining out
of competition.
Sixty-four players qualified, 84 be-,
ing high qualifying soore. Today 32
of these will be eliminated in another
qualifying round, and the remainder
will pair for match play for the
championship cup,

Sox Weak in Reserve Strength
Cubs and Feds Lose.
The Sox will never win an Amer-g
ican League pennant, or even be r
prominent in the competition for any
length of time, until there is ah in
crease of secondary strength among
the South Siders.
At the present time Callahan has
only one infielder who can step into
the fray at any corner of the diamond
except first, and play in almost the
same vein as the regular he relieves.
That man is Joe Berger, who is used
at second and short whenever Black- .
burne or Weaver are temporarily on
the bench. '
So far Berger has not been used
at third, bin; he undoubtedly could
